hi,
Is anybody there to help me on installation of sun grid engine in red hat linux 9.I got some errors while installation......help me on this!

well, you will need to post the error messages otherwise nobody will be able to help you.

while installing sun grid engine network configuration error has been reported as


error resolving local host: can't resolve host name (h_errno = TRY_AGAIN)
./util/install_modules/inst_common.sh: line 111: -e: command not found

help me to solve.....

would you try this for me:

and post resluts.

also post the results from the following command:
It looks like the complier needs to resolve the local host (the machine itself) IP address and it's not able to.
Localhost IP address is 127.0.0.1
Also check if the network connection is up. do the following and post results:
You should see your network adapter listed in the output of the above command . you should also see the IP address you got from the network

well the results are

[root@localhost ~]# ping localhost
ping: unknown host localhost

[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
192.168.0.198 localhost.localdomain

proceeding further,sun grid engine installation failed reporting the following....


Unsupported local hostname
--------------------------

The current hostname is resolved as follows:

Hostname: localhost.localdomain
Aliases:
Host Address(es): 192.168.0.198

It is not supported for a Grid Engine installation that the local hostname
contains the hostname "localhost" and/or the IP address "127.0.x.x" of the
loopback interface.
The "localhost" hostname should be reserved for the loopback interface
("127.0.0.1") and the real hostname should be assigned to one of the
physical or logical network interfaces of this machine.

Installation failed.

Well, you need to change the hostname then. I'm not sure whether you're running Linux or not. But you need to research how to change hostname for you operating system.
when you change it, it should work.
